from Scott Burnside of ESPN,
What a sham this has been, this three-penny opera….
For months, the hockey world has been consumed with speculation and conjecture about where Mats Sundin would land as though he was some god descending upon Mount Olympus with a lighting bolt in his hand instead of a hockey stick and a résumé chock full of holes.
The great Swede has been mythologized and courted and coveted; and now, mercifully, he is back, if for no other reason, so we can stop wondering which team will be blessed with his presence.

Burnside needs to brush up his mythology. The gods would descend from Olympus, as that was their home.
Precious few sportswriters I’ve encountered can pull off trying to sound smart without sounding stupid. The key here is to sound smart all of the time—ala Duhatschek—rather than trying to impress by shoehorning in some trite simile or metaphor that a tenth-grader would be proud of.
